Week 5 response

The portrait on the right is ‘David’ by Bernini and it represents a Baroque form. This picture represents David vigorously throwing a stone at the beast and it represents classicism with its design. Borromini’s façade itself is very modest and it has some ovate features that are involved in the portrayal. The Borromini picture uses entablatures and also contains Corinthian columns. It even has mathematical styles in it that have been inspired by the Renaissance period. The baroque period itself represented proportions and construction that played off each other in a bit.
